Is everyone in tech just currently coping at the moment? They say how horrible the job market is yet at the same time they say it's still worth it to pursue computer science? Is a CS degree going to be useless 4 years from now when I graduate?

Who the FUCK says it's still worth it? You should kick those people in the balls for lying to you like that

why fucking psychic, fortune teller powers do you think we have that you don't, fucko?

Your guess is as good as anyone's. Study what you're passionate about.

Lets see your portfolio.

They want you to be scared so you don't try. The harder tech advances, the easier the jobs become. Don't let them FUD you and just do you.

I only see people in big-tech/corporate eng struggling.

Don't have idea about ML engs, but I see people who work remotely doing great rn. Forget stock options, now tax optimization is main way of getting wealth

Jannies nuking everything now because of shared IP's kek.

Its a mix of both, which is why the corpos don't want you to know about.

Like Tech for military/clearance work is hotter than ever, weirdly enough system admin, networking is now booming.
Development is way more competitive but the gains are still high. A lot of that had to do with how corps pulled ant-trust/ competitive bullshit by over hiring to stiff competition. When the VC money ran out for conventional coders, firms started play musical chairs.
On the flip-side AI devs or really anything are getting payed SEVEN DIGIT figures. Also if you do your own consultation/have your own product at a smaller scale you will find it believe it or not there plenty of other business that are looking for bespoke solutions.

I personally blame trump honestly for just creating so much uncertainty for growth. Everyone is just piling onto AI bubble or not because its ironically enough stable.

tl;dr Job market isn't black n white right now. I will say the way hiring is done is more fucked than ever before partly because of AI and the same shitty ways headhunting is still done.

Outside of medicine and law basically every degree might as well be toilet paper.
If you dont get a job or internship during or shortly after graduation its over.
